Quick update (1 July)
Jul. 1st, 2024 01:55 pmSo after 2 weeks the engineers came to replace the cables to fix the internet. Because the wifi is patchy, often nonexistent on my pc, and sometimes even the hardwired devices are failing to connect. Early mornings are better (maybe before everyone is online) and times it is cooler and we had some hot weather last week.
And...they said they couldn't fix it because they need to lift the slabs of the path leading from road to back of garden and down garden path to the box where it enters the house, to remove/replace the existing cables without leaving the wires exposed and/or a trip hazard. And they can't lift the slabs. That will require a different team of people. So they could not replace the cable.
:gross sobbing:
It's cooler today and while I could not get Teams to load (not unusual even /with/ good internet - we're moving everything at work to Google, Gmail, etc over the next 2 months which might be a blessing) I have been able to do a bit of catching up on reading at Dreamwidth.
( more personal rambling )
